Create a node base workflow like ComfyUI, Weavy, Pika or Runway ML for more advance control

Hello Adobe Firefly Team,

I’m Juan Diaz, Course Director for Compositing & Scene Finishing at Full Sail University. As part of our AI-integrated production curriculum, we actively test Firefly alongside platforms such as ComfyUI, Weavy, Runway, and Pika to evaluate real-world workflow integration.

While Firefly’s generation quality and Creative Cloud integration are excellent, I would like to formally request consideration for a node-based modular workflow system within Firefly for advanced users and enterprise pipelines.

A node-based architecture would enable:

• Procedural prompt stacking
• Mask and region-based routing
• Multi-pass generation control
• Style and motion layer branching
• Depth and normal pass injection
• Controlled iteration comparisons
• Export-ready compositing structures
• Seamless After Effects / Premiere / Photoshop pipeline flow

Currently, tools like ComfyUI allow modular control but lack Adobe ecosystem integration. Firefly is uniquely positioned to bring professional, non-destructive procedural AI workflows into mainstream creative production.

As an educator integrating AI into compositing workflows, this capability would:

• Elevate Firefly from generative tool to production system
• Align with node-based industry standards (Nuke, Houdini thinking)
• Enable deeper curriculum adoption
• Support enterprise-level pipeline integration

I would welcome the opportunity to participate in beta testing or provide structured educational feedback if such a development path is being considered.

Thank you for your continued innovation in AI-driven creative workflows.

Best regards,
Juan Diaz

      I totally agree with this ! 👏

       

      But I also understand how both disruptive and reconstructive this paradigm of a node-based workflow will be to the whole ecosystem of Adobe’s popular and recent creative tools. 

       

      However… with Adobe Graph (as demonstrated during the Adobe MAX a few months ago) and the agentic connection with OpenAI, that old dog Photoshop is becoming available as the first ‘modular’ and agentic toolset as we speak ! As a matter of fact, in the Adobe Enterprise R&D department, they’re already cooking up a node-based Adobe Creative Production environment ! (I’ve seen the video below during MAX, noticed the “Coming Soon” footnote, and drank the Kool-Aid...)

       

      [The video will start at the proper section.]

       

       

      So there’s definitely progress at Adobe in this area, and I’m also really looking forward to it. Because after four decades the creative software as we know it (with that one-artwork canvas, a tall toolset on the left, dozens of panels floating around, and files in folders everywhere) is slowly disappearing, being replaced by boards, materials, references, nodes, prompts, and AI. It’s a new era and area.

       

      After the digitization of the stages of creation, production, and distribution, those first steps of ideation and –why not– the whole workflow is becoming a digital kitchen sink, with the art director and creatives conducting the fully-fledged orchestra ! Brands like Figma (Weave) and Vizcom are early and good examples of it.

       

      It’s a wonderful time…

      Hello Juan,

      Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful proposal. We truly appreciate the insight you’ve shared, especially from an educational and production pipeline perspective.

      Your suggestion for a node-based, modular workflow within Firefly will be shared with our product team for consideration. While we can’t comment on roadmap plans, feedback from educators like you is extremely valuable in shaping future improvements.

       

      Let us know if you have any questions.

      Kartika
